Harsh J commented on HDFS-3358:
-------------------------------
I get that already Suresh. I should ask more clearly, sorry:
{{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total.}}
I need to simply know WHY do we add blocks and inodes here?
Showing counts is one thing, and I think its OK to show counts. Why add counts and call it
something vague like "total". A "total" of what?
Should it matter to an admin what the "total" is? If so, how should he look at it?

> The NN shows, on its web UI, something like:
> {{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total.}}
> Followed by heap stats.
> We should clarify this line is talking of objects and is related to the heap summaries.
Perhaps just being explicit about java-terms would be nicer:
> {{223 files and directories, 138 blocks = 361 total objects.}}
